FRINGE Recap: ‘The Human Kind’

Despite some of the FRINGE episode titles being super literal this season, I was a little afraid to get too attached to tonight’s title. (“The Human Kind,” in case you missed this post’s headline or any of the other posts I wrote about the show this week.) Was it about Peter’s rapidly deteriorating humanity? Olivia’s fight to save him? Something else entirely?
This episode was an important one. Several times over the past couple of months, Joshua Jackson (Peter) pointed to his character needing to be at a certain place by episode 4 (when Etta died), and then mentioned episode 8, and then the finale. And after watching tonight’s hour, it’s pretty clear why it stuck out in his mind.
